Julian Clarke: Birth: Sep. 30, 1798 Spotsylvania County Virginia Death: Sep. 21, 1838 Frankfort Franklin County Kentucky The following obituary was found in the Joseph C. and Harriett L. Julian Clarke Bible records: Died, in this county, on Friday last, at 2 o'clock A.M., of acute inflammation _______, in the 40th year of her age, Mrs. Harrie(t) Clarke., wife of Mr. Joseph Clarke. The manner in which Mrs. Clarke has filled all the relations of daughter, sister, wife, mother, friend, neighbor, and christian, has been such that in any sketch, her worth would be but a well told tale. As a daughter, she was most dutiful and affectionate; as a sister, kind and tender; as a wife, most affectionate, gentle and confiding; as a mother, discreet, intelligent and affectionate; as a friend, constant and sincere; as a neighbor, kind and obliging; as a christian, most exemplary and devout. But few, if any better women ever lived, or purer christians ever died. Such a woman, what a loss! But she is not dead; but sleepeth; weep not for her, but weep for the living. She has ceased from her pain and sorrow, and has entered on her reward. ___ Let me die her death and let my end be like hers. Family: Parents: Charles Julian, M.D. (1774 - 1837) Jane Moore Julian (1777 - 1851) Spouse: Joseph C. Clarke (1793 - 1875) She was the mother of Sallie Ann Clarke Parker.
